Hydrologic (Water) Cycle Experiment, Flash Cards, Poster & Water Color Changing Experiment

The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the Earth's surface. It is driven by the sun's energy and includes key processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. Water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and rivers, rises into the atmosphere as vapor, condenses to form clouds, and then falls back to Earth as precipitation. This precipitation collects in bodies of water, infiltrates the ground, or becomes runoff, continuing the cycle. 

Indonesia's water cycle (hydrologic cycle) is characterized by a distinct wet season (October to March) and dry season (April to September), driven by the Australian-Indonesian monsoon and influenced by its location between two oceans and two continents. Due to this location and a rapid, daily cycle of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, Indonesia has a unique and quick hydrologic cycle.

This hand's on activity demonstrates a simplistic version of the Hydrologic Cycle through a simple experiment, full color flashcards and cycle poster, as well as a color changing experiment demonstrating how Indonesia's Kelimutu lakes change color based on pH with a home friendly litmus test. 

Includes five (5) pages of resources, also included in the INDONESIA Activity e-Book/Bundle.
